Under protanopia (reduced red sensitivity), #36F6C1 and #A5FFC5 may look alike, so avoid using that difference alone to carry meaning. Under deuteranopia (reduced green sensitivity), #32C188 and #14D39B may look alike, so avoid using that difference alone to carry meaning. Under tritanopia (reduced blue sensitivity), #14D39B and #3EE884 may look alike, so avoid using that difference alone to carry meaning.
How to use it
Suggested roles: #A5FFC5 as the background, #14D39B for cards and surfaces, #3EE884 as the primary brand color, #36F6C1 as the accent, and #062015 for text (a computed darker shade of Mint, because no palette color is readable on that background). A reliable starting split is 60% background and surface, 30% primary and 10% accent.
Use the lightest color for large areas, the mid tones for structure, and the darkest for text. Add contrast through lightness, since hue will not do it for you.
